I’ve also been (slowly) reading Carrie Rubin’s excellent thriller Eating Bull, so there’s a hugely obvious influence on my POV character. The rest of the tale just kind of came through the whimsy of imagination. I guess it was the right story at the right time because I skipped out on two days of writing and still managed to finish it by Saturday.

This one was also another favorite of my first reader. She definitely likes my humorous stuff and she’s always been a fan of dark comedies, so I had a feeling she would dig this story. She even wants to make a short film of it, but would change the ending.
